There is a type of DDoS Attack I had recently, where the attacker used fake random IPs to constantly request the same page over and over again and made it look like thousands of guests were accessing the forum.

I managed to stop the attacks by getting their HTTP_USER_AGENT details and adding it to the .htaccess file.

Would be good to see something like this made more automated to deal with these sort of attacks against vBulletin forums.
